5-minute-consensus wind data from the ISS1 profiler (449MHz) at Marshall is available in the time-height-plot web-visualization tool that I have been working on:
Data for the extent of the project / all that is available in NetCDF files for 5-minute ISS1 is available in the time-height-plot.
New data for the current day is loaded at 10 minutes after the top of every hour (following generation of winds data at the top of every hour).
Color-coded windbarbs are displayed for profiles and temporal navigation is available via the buttons under the plot. Hovering over the spine of a windbarb reveals a popup with data for the profile.
I am currently working on supporting 30-minute-consensus ISS1 data and NIMA ISS4 (915MHz) data, hoping that will be available in the near future.
Thanks to everyone who has worked on generating the profiler data and NetCDF files!
Mobile-device caveat
The application uses responsive sizing to adapt to different display widths, but display on mobile devices, especially phones, has not received attention yet, so may not be all that great.
Also, Foothills
I have been working with Bill on displaying data from the profiler running at Foothills and things seem to be working well. Data for duration of project available here, updating with new data hourly:

Josh and I brought CLAMPS from Norman and, with BIll and I helping Josh, got it set-up, plugged in, and running (though Josh is tweaking several things). A good day!
About 3:30, a close (3s = 1000m) lightning strike caused a power glitch that stopped several of the profiling instruments. During the next hour, Bill and Josh recovered the systems that were affected.
I checked on the TP01, which has been giving quite erratic values. It seems to be wired okay, but now, even with pio power cycling, is giving bad or missing data. I guess replacement is the next step?
I also checked on the EC150s. During the rain, I chased some missing/erratic data that all became okay after the rain dried. That felt kind of foolish... Nevertheless, there are large calibration offsets that appear to change in amount, with these shifts primarily associated with rain events. This is not promising towards getting stable calibrations and gradients from these sensors,
Prompted by Jacquie noticing an outage in TP01 data, I used rserial to send an "si" command to force the mote to rescan its I2C buss. This immediately reconnected to the TP01 data stream. I don't know why/how the mote stopped collecting data from it (on 4 July).
Reviewed the measurements on NCharts since 1 July.
